cbauth announces several custom interception points. You can use these interception points to change request data or add additional values to session or request scopes. The preAuthentication and postAuthentication events fire during the standard authenticate() method call with a username and password. The preLogin and postLogin events fire during the login() method call. The preLogout and postLogout events fire during the logout() method call.
{% hint style="info" %}
the preLogin and postLogin interception points will be called during the course of authenticate(). The order of the calls then are preAuthentication -> preLogin -> postLogin -> postAuthentication.
{% endhint %}
InterceptData
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| username | The username passed in to cbauth |
| password | The password passed in to cbauth |
Modifying the values in the interceptData will change what is passed to isValidCredentials and retrieveUserByUsername. This is the prime time to ignore certain requests or remove or pad usernames.
